COMMENT
A seismic shift
S
o far, 2018 has been a decidedly bullish year for global oil prices. Looking back to my comment at the beginning of the year, market traders were confident that we would experience favourable oil prices and so far, so good. Recently, Brent and WTI futures reached their highest level in more than three years at $78 and $71 respectively. These rising commodity prices can be largely attributed to OPEC’s production cuts, which are set to continue until at least the end of 2018, and there is talk they could be extended again if participants feel that the market has not rebalanced. And this new confidence in the market has been reflected by strong growth in the oil & gas midstream sector. The US is an excellent example of how the storage sector is booming as the country reaps the benefits of a, quite frankly, seismic shift in oil and gas production. The International Energy Agency has projected that the US will become an ‘undisputed world leader in oil and gas production’ and it is not hard to see why. Crude oil output in the three months from November has increased by a colossal pace and it may well overtake Russia by the end of 2018 to become the global leader. This explosion in production is followed by a significant build out in infrastructure – namely storage terminals and pipelines. You only need to look at our Tank Terminal Update to see that a large majority of construction activity is taking place in Texas and the Permian Basin. And Mexico’s liberalised energy markets are also opening up a raft of
06
opportunities in the marketplace. In this edition, we speak exclusively to Avant Energy and Savage Companies about a new network of storage terminals – the SUPERA network – to satisfy the country’s growing demand for refined petroleum products. Heading further south, this edition of the magazine has a special focus on the oil markets in Venezuela. The country’s oil sector faces an unprecedented crisis as declining output, economic crisis and political strife take their toll. And there are tough times ahead for the country as experts predict it will take years for the situation to be reversed. Across the ocean, we find out more about Europe’s new leading port – North Sea Port – following a merger at the end of 2017 as well as finding out more about Orpic & CLH’s new two-way multi-product Muscat Suhar Product Pipeline in Oman. This is in addition to an update on the latest US regulations as well as a dedicated section on natural disaster preparation & good practice as we head into hurricane season. The team will be at the ILTA show, so make sure to come by booth M5 to say hi and talk about this latest edition. We look forward to seeing many of you in Houston.
With best wishes,
Jasmin

Energy Transfer announces new ethane export storage terminal Energy Transfer Partners and Satellite Petrochemical USA have formed a JV to build a new export terminal on the US Gulf Coast.
T
he new facility will provide ethane to Satellite for consumption at their ethane cracking facilities in China. The JV, Orbit Gulf Coast NGL Exports, will also construct a 20-inch ethane pipeline originating at ETP’s Mont Belvieu Fractionators that will make delivers to Orbit’s ethane export terminal on the US Gulf Coast as well as domestic markets in the region. At the terminal, Orbit will build 800,000 barrel refrigerated ethane storage tank and a 175,000 barrel per day ethane refrigeration facility. Energy Transfer will be the operator of the Orbit assets. Additionally, Energy Transfer will construct and wholly own the
infrastructure that is required to both supply ethane to the pipeline and load the ethane on to the VLECs destined for the ethane crackers in China’s Jiangsu province. It is anticipated that the Orbit export terminal will be put in service by the fourth quarter of 2020. As part of these agreements, Energy Transfer and Satellite also executed agreements for the sale of ethane at the terminal. Energy Transfer will provide Satellite with 150,000 barrels per day of ethane under a long-term, demand-based agreement. Energy Transfer will also provide storage and marketing services for Satellite.
Port of Corpus Christi approve lease agreement for new storage terminal Port of Corpus Christi commissioners have approved a lease agreement for 55 acres of land to build and operate a marine terminal facility. The lease agreement for land on the north side of the Corpus Christi Ship Chanel in the Inner Harbour will allow for a new storage facility for the export of US crude oil, condensate and refined petroleum products via a new oil dock. As part of the agreement, the port will construct a new oil dock and Corpus Christi Infrastructure (CCI) will install the loading arms, handling equipment, storage tanks and other facilities. The port will dredge a berth to accommodate Suezmax tankers at Oil Dock 22 and CCI will have exclusive use of the Dock 22 berth. Charles Zahn, chairman port commission, says: ‘This lease agreement aligns with the port’s vision to be the energy port of the Americas
and the strategic plan goal by supporting the infrastructure developments necessary to move increasing volumes of US-produced energy toward global markets.’

US Gulf of Mexico oil production to continue record highs to 2019 Crude oil production in the Federal Gulf of Mexico (GOM) is expected to continue increasing in 2018 and 2019. According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA), US crude oil production in GOM increased slightly in 2017, reaching 1.65 million barrels per day. This is the highest annual level on record despite being briefly hindered by platform outages and pipeline issues. In the EIA’s short-term energy outlook, it expects the GOM to account for 16% of total US crude oil production in each year. Based on expected production levels at new and existing fields, annual crude oil production in the GOM will increase to an average of 1.7 million barrels per day in 2018 and 1.8 million barrels per day in 2019. In 2016, producers brought seven new projects and expansions online and ramped up production in 2017, collectively contributing to an average of 126,000 barrels per day of production in 2017. Producers expect four new projects to come online in 2018 and six more in 2019.

Enterprise to expand Houston marine storage terminal Enterprise Products Partners will expand its marine terminal on the Houston Ship Channel after purchasing a 65-acre waterfront site.
T
he Enterprise Hydrocarbon Terminal currently comprises two existing docks, dredging infrastructure that will be utilised for maintenance and dock expansion at the site, and land for significantly expanding its marine terminalling capabilities. Future expansion plans include construction of at least two deepwater docks capable of accommodating Suezmax vessels. A.J ‘Jim’ Teague, CEO of Enterprise’s general partner, says: ‘As one of the last waterfront properties for sale adjacent to our existing shop channel assets,
this strategic acquisition complements our world-class EHT marine terminal and strengthens our position as an industry leader in providing waterborne access. ‘The growth opportunities available at the 65-acre site enhance our ability to accommodate growing US hydrocarbon production, which is increasingly destined for global markets.’ The newly acquired assets will be part of Enterprise’s premier Gulf Coast network of marine terminals that includes 18 ship docks, and eight barge docks.
Marathon Petroleum & Andeavor in midstream merger Marathon Petroleum will acquire all of Andeavor’s outstanding shares as part of a merger agreement to create a leading US refining, marketing and midstream company. The transaction will mean that Marathon and Andeavor shareholders will own 66% and 34% of the combined company, respectively. Once the transaction is complete in the second half of 2018, it will create a leading nationwide integrated energy company with an initial enterprise value greater than $90 billion. It will substantially increase its geographic diversification and scale positioning the company for long-term growth and value creation. Gary R. Heminger, Marathon chairman and CEO, says: ‘This transaction combines two strong, complementary companies to create a leading US refining, marketing and midstream company, building a platform that is well-positioned for long-term growth and shareholder value creation. ‘Each of our operating segments are strengthened through this transaction, as it geographically diversifies our refining portfolio into attractive markets, increases access to advantaged feedstocks, enhances our midstream footprint in the Permian basin, and creates a nationwide retail and marketing portfolio that will substantially improve efficiencies and enhance our ability to serve customers. ‘ The move will build on Marathon’s strong footprint in the Marcellus, the combined company’s expanded presence in the Permian and Bakken regions significantly increases its midstream growth opportunities.

Petrobras to sell stake in four refineries Petrobras plans to sell a 60% operating stake in four oil refineries as part of plans to sell down its dominant position in Brazil’s fuel market. The sales, which include the newly built Refinaria do Nordeste, represent what is expected to be the first move in a restructuring of Brazil’s refining sector. Currently, Petrobras operates 98% of Brazil’s refining capacity. The company’s plans to retreat from the refining sector were announced in mid-216 and it has said it will refocus its investments on exploration and production. In a filing with local stock regulators, the company says: ‘The model outlines the creation of two subsidiaries, one combining assets in the northeast region and the other combining assets in the south region. Petrobras intends to sell 60% of its participation in each of these new companies.’ The northeast cluster includes the Refinaria Landulpho Alves (RLAM) in Bahia state, and the Refinaria do Nordeste (rnest). They both process 430,000 barrels per day. The cluster includes 770km of oil pipelines linking the refineries with terminals and distribution points. Storage and transfer capacity will also be included, comprising 5.4 million barrels of capacity via the company’s stake in terminals at Candeias, Itabuna, Jequie and Madre de Deus in Bahia state and the Suape terminal in Pernambuco. The south cluster comprises Refinaria Presidente Getulio Vargas (Repar) and Refinaria Alberto Pasqualini (Refap). This cluster includes 736km of pipeline as well as rights to seven terminals with 6.1 million barrels of crude, 3.3 million barrels of oil products and 100,000 barrels of LPG capacity.

Buckeye & Phillips 66 to create Texas marine storage terminal Buckeye Partners & Phillips 66 have formed a joint venture to develop a new deep-water marine storage terminal in Ingleside, Texas. The South Texas Gateway Terminal will be built on a 212-acre waterfront parcel at the mouth of Corpus Christi Bay. It will be positioned to serve as the primary outlet for crude oil and condensate volumes delivered off of the planned Gray Oak pipeline from the Permian Basin. The terminal, to be constructed and operated by Buckeye, will offer 3.4 million barrels of crude oil storage capacity, connectivity to the Gray Oak pipeline and two deep-water vessel docks capable of berthing VLCC petroleum tankers as part of the initial scope of construction. The facility can ultimately be expanded to include over 10 million barrels of storage capacity as well as multiple additional docks and other inbound connections. The initial construction of the facility is supported by long-term minimum volume throughput commitments from customers including Phillips 66 and Andeavor. It is due to start operations by the end of 2019. Khalid Muslih, executive vice president of
Buckeye and president of Buckeye’s global marine terminals business unit, says: ‘The South Texas Gateway Terminal will serve as a premier open-access deep-water marine terminal in the Port of Corpus Christi. ‘The terminal will provide customers with logistics solutions that connect the region’s rapidly growing crude oil production with advantaged access to global markets. ‘This project expands our presence in the important Corpus Christi market, which we believe offers strong competitive advantages for waterborne shipments of crude oil and other petroleum products from the fast-growing Permian and Eagle Ford shale plats. ‘Recently announced improvements to our existing flagship Buckeye Texas Partners terminal, which sits along the ship channel in the Port of Corpus Christi, have expanded its leading marine terminaling capabilities. ‘We believe that these assets represent a competitive advantage for Buckeye and position us at the forefront of the fast-growing US crude oil export movement.’
Sempra Energy to build marine storage terminal in Mexico Sempra Energy plans to develop, build and operate a liquid fuels marine terminal at the La Jobita Energy Hub in Ensenada, Mexico. The Baja Refinados terminal will be a receipt, storage and send-out facility operated by Infraestructura Energética Nova, a subsidiary of Sempra. It will have an initial storage capacity of one million barrels of petrol and diesel that will increase the fuel supply capacity and reliability in Baja California. It will cost around $130 million and operations are expected to start in the second half of 2020. IEnova also announced it has signed a long-term contact with Chevron Combustibles de Mexico for 50% of the facility’s storage and send-out capacity. IEnova will be responsible for the development of the liquid fuels terminal project.

Saudi Aramco & consortium to develop refinery & petrochemicals complex Saudi Aramco and a consortium of Indian oil companies have signed a MoU to develop and build an integrated mega refinery and petrochemicals complex in Maharashtra, India.
T
he strategic partnership which includes Indian Oil Corporation, Bharat Petroleum Corporation and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation, brings together crude supply, resources, technologies and expertise from multiple oil companies. A pre-feasibility study for the refinery has been completed and the parties are finalising the project’s overall configuration. They will also discuss the formation of a joint venture. The refinery will be capable of processing 1.2 million barrels of crude oil per day and will produce a range of refined petroleum products. The refinery will also provide feedstock for the integrated petrochemical complex. The project – Ratnagiri Refinery and Petrochemicals will also include a cracker, downstream petrochemical facilities, logistics, crude oil and product storage terminals as well as associated infrastructure. It is estimated to cost $44 billion. Saudi Aramco president and CEO Amin Nasser says: ‘Investing in India is a key part of our company’s global downstream strategy, and another milestone in our growing relationship with India. ‘Participating in this mega project will allow Saudi Aramco to go beyond our crude oil supplier role to a fully integrated position that may help usher in other area’s of collaboration, such as refining, marketing and petrochemicals for India’s future energy demands.’

New Muscat-Suhar pipeline & Oman terminal inaugurated Orpic Logistics Company (OLC) has started operations at its new Muscat-Suhar pipeline and its Al Jefnain storage terminal in Oman.
T
he $336 million pipeline represents a key logistics infrastructure, allowing more than 50% of the country’s fuel to be transported and contributing to improved road safety, with fewer road tankers in and around the capital of Muscat. The Muscat Suhar Product Pipeline (MSPP) is a multi-product, bi-directional pipeline that uses 290 kilometres of pipelines to connect the Mina Al Fahal and Sohar Orpic refineries to the Al Jefnain storage and distribution facility, as well as to the Muscat International airport. It is divided into three sections and it has satellite control systems and advanced safety and environmental protection. The Al Jefnain storage facility is a centre for the storage and distribution of petroleum products with a capacity of more than 170,000 m3 and 16 loading racks. At this facility, an average of 700 trucks are
loaded every day, carrying fuel to service stations. The facility increases the country’s refined products storage capacity by 70%. OLC is a joint venture company, created by CLH and Orpic. Jorge Lanza, CEO of CLH, says: ‘The MSPP project is a significant milestone in the history of our company and we believe that it will open doors to new opportunities. CLH is committed to the development of the economy and talent of Oman, and we hope to continue to undertake more projects together, both in Oman and the surrounding area.’ Vice president of Orpic, H.E. Sultank bin Salim Al Habsi, adds: ‘This project responds to the government’s strategic goals for the development of logistics systems for petroleum products in the Sultanate, which will cover the growing demand for fuels.’ Read our in-depth and exclusive interview about the MSPP project on pages 40 & 41
New fuel oil storage terminal planned for Fujairah Earth Wealth Energy plans to build a 360,000 m3 fuel oil storage and treatment facility at the Port of Fujairah. Platts reports that the Dubai-based trader plans to build the facility ahead of the IMO’s marine fuel sulphur cap, which will be implemented on January 1, 2020. The company plans to build 12 to 15 storage tanks and a facility to treat up to 12,000 barrels per day of fuel oil to reduce the sulphur content. Rotary Engineering has been contracted to carry out the engineering study and Earth Wealth Energy aims to make a final investment decision on the project and start work this year. The facility is expected to be ready no later than the second quarter of 2020.
Work starts on Nigerian storage terminal Construction work has started on the Tomaro Industrial Park, which comprises a storage terminal, oil rig fabrication plant, refinery and shipyard. The park, which was made a free trade zone by the federal government as part of its efforts to industrialise the nation’s economy, will cost around $450 million. Captain Emmanuel Ihenacho, chairman and CEO of Integrated Oil and Gas/Genesis Shipping Worldwide, told journalists in a site tour that the storage facility consists of 30 tank bases with a capacity of 500 million litres. With that capacity, NNPC will be able to draw fuel for 15 days when there are interruptions in fuel supply in the country.

Construction work starts on Duqm refinery complex Work on the 230,000 barrels per day Duqm refinery, which is the largest cross-border GCC investment in the downstream sector, has started. His Highness Sayyid/Haitham bin Tariq Al Said, minister of heritage and culture, took part in the groundbreaking ceremony to mark the start of construction work for the project. The project by Duqm Refinery and Petrochemical Industries Company is envisaged to be the cornerstone for other downstream projects in the future. The refinery, which will manufacture clean, high-quality products in compliance with global standards for safety and operation, will bolster the energy industry of the Sultanate by strengthening the supply and production of diesel, jet fuel, naphtha, LPG, sulphur and pet coke as its primary products. It will be situated on a 900-hectare site in the south east of Al Wusta in Oman. The project comprises three EPC packages. The first is the process unit of the refinery and the second includes utilities and offsite facilities. The third consists of the product storage and export terminal in Duqm, crude storage tanks in Ras Markaz and the 80km crude pipeline from Ras Markaz to the refinery complex. The project has the potential to serve as the springboard for Duqm’s planned transformation into one of the largest industrial and economic hubs in the region. Iasm bin Saud Al-Zadjali, CEO of Oman Oil Company, says: ‘Oman Oil Company performs the role of a catalyst to develop industrial hubs and regions in Oman. The Duqm refinery is one such project that symbolises the effective collaboration between Oman and Kuwait. We believe development of the refinery will support the business landscape in Duqm and will contribute to the creation of an attractive infrastructure for foreign investors, thereby developing the area further and adding jobs to the local economy.’ Nabil Bourisli, CEO and president, Kuwait Petroleum International, says: ‘The modern landmark will leverage the energy sector of the Sultanate since it is a combination of integrity, maximisation of resources and development, to be laid in a very favourable region.’

Vopak expands Rotterdam terminal for chemical storage Vopak is expanding its Botlek terminal in the Port of Rotterdam with 63,000 m3 of storage capacity for Styrene and other hazardous chemicals.
T
he expansion will add 15 stainless steel tanks for Styrene, which is used in the manufacturing of a wide range of consumer goods including packaging, construction and automotive. The new infrastructure will be fully isolated to allow for product temperature control and is designed to prevent any emissions to the environment. It will connect seaborne trade flows via barges, block-trains and trucks to the European hinterland. It is expected to be commissioned in the second quarter of 2020. Vopak’s quarter one update reports that its occupancy rate is 87% compared to 91% in the first quarter of 2017 due to lower rented capacity at oil hub terminals
caused by a less favourable market structure. Other product market segments show stable demand for storage services. It reports an EBITDA of €190 million. It says in the update that its 2018 financial performance is expected to be influenced by currency exchange movements of primarily the USD and SGD and the less favourable oil market structure, impacting occupancy rates and price levels in hub locations. that given the current 3.1 million m3 expansion programme with high commercial coverage, along with its ongoing cost efficiency programme, Vopak has the potential to significantly improve the 2019 EBITDA, subject to market condition and currency exchange movements.
New aviation tank terminal opened at Dublin Airport A new €40 million aviation fuel storage terminal has been opened at Dublin Airport. The facility has six times the capacity of the original facility, with three new aviation fuel tanks capable of storing 15 million litres of fuel in total. The project also includes connecting the fuel farm to a fuel hydrant system, which enables the fuel to be delivered directly into the aircraft via a hydrant dispenser that connects to a pit in the ground. The new facility means that aircrafts can now be refuelled in less than half the time it took under the old system, and the number of fuel vehicles on the apron area has reduced by 50%. The CLH Group was awarded the contract to design, finance, build, operate and transfer.

Stolthaven Terminals expects continued performance improvements Increased utilisation and ongoing operational enhancements will contribute towards steady performance improvements at Stolthaven Terminals. The terminal division of Stolt Nielsen reports first quarter revenue of $62.5 million compared to $61.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. Utilisation edged up and total product handled increased by12.9% in the first quarter, mainly attributed to normalisation of operations at Stolthaven Houston following Hurricane Harvey. It reported first-quarter operating profit of $25.9 million, compared with $5.4 million in the fourth quarter. Growth in operating income also reflected higher equity income from Stolthaven’s joint venture terminals in Ulsan, South Korea and Lingang, China. Niels Stolt-Nielsen, CEO of Stolt-Nielsen, says: ‘Looking ahead, the fundamentals remain unchanged. At Stolthaven Terminals, we expect continued slow, but steady improvements in performance driven by increased utilisation and ongoing operational enhancements.’

A contractor was taken to hospital after a storage tank burst into flames. The man was taken to hospital after falling 30 feet as a result of the explosion, with a serious leg injury. He was part of a crew working to demolish an asphalt tank that had been damaged by an explosion. The city’s fire department said the crew were using a cutting torch that somehow caused another tank to explode. The man then fell 30 feet into the previously damaged tank. Firefighters cut open a hole in the tank to rescue him.
A series of explosions at Wisconsin’s only oil refinery injured 20 people. Following the initial explosion of a small tank containing either crude or asphalt in the morning, a fire reignited at the site as a series of seven or eight more explosions were heard. Thousands of residents and businesses were evacuated but no one was fatally injured. An investigation has been launched into the cause of the incident.
